A brief introduction to coffee producing areas-the difference between Ethiopian boutique coffee and ordinary coffee

Ethiopia is a landlocked country in northeast Africa. It is bordered by Djibouti and Somalia to the east, Sudan and South Sudan to the west, Kenya to the south and Eritrea to the north. The plateau accounts for 2% of the country's area, with an average elevation of nearly 3000 meters, which is known as the "roof of Africa".

Ethiopia is the birthplace of the famous Arabica coffee beans, and people have always maintained the tradition of harvesting wild coffee beans. The coffee garden with an elevation of more than 1500 meters has formed a unique coffee style after more than a thousand years of evolution and adaptation. Ethiopian coffee grown in the natural wild environment is called "wilderness coffee". It retains the most primitive and natural taste of coffee beans and has the most direct and full expression of the local environment.

It is worth mentioning that most of the coffee in Central and South America is imported, but Ethiopia is a rare native place, and there are countless native wild varieties that have not yet been discovered.

Of the nine major coffee producing areas in Ethiopia, Hidamo and Yegashafi are the most outstanding. Yega Xuefei originally belongs to the sub-region of Hidamo, which is independent because of its special flavor. Because of its rich and complex fruit aroma, it has become an international hit almost overnight, becoming a hot target for experts and expensive.
